When in Wine Country, Stay Here!!!

Location was amazing. We found some amazing hiking/walking trails in the AM and then drank some of the best pinot noir in beautiful Tuscan-esque vineyards in the PM...all within driving distance. Hosts were even better. Amy and Shawn were both kind and warm in welcoming us to their BnB. Every morning started with a 5-star quality breakfast to start the day right (they were very mindful of food allergies) and our day was often filled with their great suggestions of places to visit, food to eat, and wine to drink.

Relaxing retreat.

Relaxing. Just far enough away but a very short drive to dinner in downtown Carlton (or McMinnville). Look forward to doing it again.

Unforgettable Stay at The Gaard House

Our stay at The Gaard House was unquestionably the highlight of our first trip to Oregon. Shawn and Amy are exceptional hosts, making us feel at home from the moment we arrived. The breakfast was absolutely delicious, and the house is equipped with everything you could possibly need. Our room was spacious, comfortable, and inviting. Overall, The Gaard House is the perfect place to unwind and rest while exploring the area. Highly recommended!

The bed and breakfast was a perfect, quiet place for a stay to visit wineries. We had an early half- marathon run the next morning, and they were able to accommodate and give us some breakfast beforehand, and allowed us to check out late after the run. We will absolutely come back!

Excellent B&B stay in the country

Cozy, isolated home on a hill overlooking the valley and hills below. Excellent view, great room, and tasty breakfast. Hosts were Welcoming and casually informative of the space, area, and locals.
